<h2 class="heading2">Adjusting System Date and Time</h2>
<p class="bodytext">You can manually set the server date and time through the interface and enable server time synchronization with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. </p>
<p class="procedureheading">To adjust the system date and time settings:</p>
<ol class="procedurelistnumber"><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click the <strong class="specialbold">Server</strong> shortcut in the navigation pane.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click <strong class="specialbold">System Time</strong>.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Edit the time and date settings as desired, and select your time zone. <p class="listcontinue">You will need to reboot your Plesk server for the time zone change to take effect.</p>
</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">To synchronize your server time with that of a server running the Network Time Protocol, select the <strong class="specialbold">Synchronize system time</strong> check box, and specify a valid IP address or a domain name. For a list of available NTP servers, visit  <a class="externalhyperlinktemplate" title="" href="http://ntp.isc.org/bin/view/Servers/WebSearch?search=open+access&scope=text" target="_blank">http://ntp.isc.org/bin/view/Servers/WebSearch?search=open+access&amp;scope=text</a></li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click <strong class="specialbold">OK</strong>.</li></ol><p class="bodytext"></p>
<p class="note"><strong class="buttons">Note.</strong> Enabling the <strong class="specialbold">Synchronize system time</strong> function will override any time and date you manually enter in the <strong class="specialbold">System Date and Time</strong> fields. It is also important to be sure the domain name or IP address you enter for synchronization is a valid NTP server. If not, this function will not work and your server will continue running with its current time settings.</p>
